"Career ChoICE is my favorite event. I enjoy seeing the middle-schoolers and the high-schoolers engage with companies, businesses and organizations. It is hands-on. They get to experience, ask questions and learn more."
Audia Harris / AmeriCorps Program Coordinator, IALR
"It’s good for me to see the students happy. They come to our table smiling, wanting to learn. We show them our hands-on demo, and they think it’s extremely cool."
Kayla Roman / Process Engineer, Arkema
"We’re trying to show students that manufacturing can be fun and that there’s a mission behind it."
Wesley Cifers / Managing Director, ATDM
"The Career Expo showed me there are a lot of career options to choose from and things that are fun."
Christian Childress / Gretna High School Student
"We have had several students who came through here and ended up coming through our program. Anybody we can get enrolled is a huge success for us."
Meghan Price / Clinical Instructor, Sovah School of Health Professions, Radiologic Technology Program
"Over the years, we’ve gotten kids from the career expo that went on to be firefighters with the city."
Shelby Irving / Fire Marshal, Danville Fire Department
"“We want our students to have as many pathways as possible. I don’t want young people to think they’re pigeonholed into a certain occupation. Young people need to be able to dream and have a vision. That’s why Martinsville City Schools brings our students to the Career ChoICE Youth Expo…"
Zebedee Talley Jr., Ed.D. / Superintendent, Martinsville City Schools
